[QUOTE="D-rock, post: 2250130, member: 7009"] In some classes school was a good place to do this. I found work was a good place to do this also. Not that I'm lazy, it was just that I worked 12 hours shifts that swung 12 hours forward or back every 2 and a half days(or it averege 2 and a half anyhow). It ended up really messing with your body. My job was to run bags full of salt into a machine that would seal the top. Well one time about 10 hours into the night I just couldn't keep my eyes open. You get that action where your head starts bobbing up and down, you know what I mean. Anyway I knew I wasn't going to make it through the night, which is pretty bad considering I worked standing up. So on I went constantly falling asleep then waking up. At some point I went out cold and for a while to, although it didn't seem like it. When I woke up it seemed like it was instantaneous, but when I looked at the bag counter I had successfully put around 800 bags through the sealer while I was asleep. I don't know what happend. I must of been sleep bagging or something. Usually when other people fell asleep(not a rare occurrence)they either made a big mess, stoped working, or sent a bunch of unsealed bags along the conveyor. In that case they woke up when the other side of the factory called you to tell you to that they sent 80 unsealed bags to them. Looking back it was kind of comical when stuff like that happend even though it wasn't not very funny at the time. Well anyway, it was close to the end of my shift, so I finished up and went home. I was kind of freaked out though. Maybe when you do something repetivly your body learns to do it on a subconsious level. Later on I found out some people did do this, but they only do a couple of bags asleep before they would wake up or send unsealed bags down the line. One person had gone longer than I did. Or so he claims he did. Which is kind of unfortunate, I really wanted the reacord. Hope you enjoyed my story. [/QUOTE]
